[Tigers] Fwd: engine compartment color black

Cullen:

It's always been my understanding that the original body color of the HSC Tiger was red and that the outer body was sprayed black when it was converted to track duty.  That would definitely explain the red in the engine compartment.  Also, unless I'm mistaken, I believe that the wheel wells were also red.  More supporting evidence...
